In Marrakech hotels the choice, often enough, is between a contemporary resort way out in the Palmeraïe and a traditional-style riad hotel in the crowded, buzzing medina. But it’s not actually as simple as that. Take the Hivernage Hotel & Spa as an example — it’s in town, though just outside the medina, and in contrast with the riads, it’s a fully serviced boutique hotel, with 85 rooms and suites, served by a spa whose offerings go quite a bit beyond the little hammams of the courtyard mansions.
Here the mid-rise construction offers a slightly uncommon elevated perspective on the city. Interiors are a sensible blend of modern hospitality design and classic Moroccan style — satellite TV and assorted other electronic gadgets alongside soft desert hues and ornate antique-style furniture.
The spa is clearly a major draw, occupying a dramatic space full of colorful flourishes; all the basics are offered, from hammam and massage to aromatherapy and a fitness studio. But the strength of this place might be in the restaurant, La Table du Marche, where the St. Tropez–based chef Christophe Leroy serves an eclectic cuisine — from traditional French pastry and baking to Moroccan specialties and globe-spanning fusion dishes.
